Why trade that type pick when there's going to be very good WR talent at the top of round 2? Given his size and the nature of the sport, I'm not investing that type of resource in Harvin at this point.

I think Harvin is a top 5 talent at his position and he is very young. I would absolutely trade that pick for an electric known quantity than someone who you hope will be as good as Harvin.

Due to Bowe being franchised last year, I'm pretty sure there's only a 1 week window before free agency begins that they can re-sign Bowe. New rules from the CBA I believe. They can not negotiate or sign him until that window opens. That window should open in late February or the beginning of March.

It sounds like they got that fixed this season. Sure, it would be a bit of a risk, but no more of a risk than drafting a second round receiver. Take a look at the last few years, and I'll take my chances on a guy like Harvin there.

Tom Pelissero of 1500ESPN.com reports, citing “four NFL sources,” that Harvin and Frazier argued “in front of some players and staff members.” That would be at least the second incident between player and coach this season; previously, Harvin was seen jawing at Frazier during a game at Seattle — the same game in which Harvin suffered his ankle injury. During the offseason, Harvin was upset about something other than his contract, and he asked for a trade.

Per Pelissero, some believe that the second argument, not the ankle injury, prompted the decision to put Harvin on injured reserve for the bulk of the season.

If the report is true (and we’ve got no reason to think it isn’t), it’s the latest in a long line of incidents involving Harvin. He clashed with former Vikings coach Brad Childress, with Frazier playing the role of peacemaker more than once. And at Florida, Harvin reportedly grabbed receivers coach Billy Gonzales by the neck and threw him to the ground. Harvin was never disciplined.

The end result could be a decision by the Vikings to get what they can for the 2009 NFL offensive rookie of the year and move on. What they get — and what he’ll get by way of a second contract — could be influenced by his history. Eventually, however, someone will take a chance on a guy who gives any team a better chance to win.

It does. But I'm telling you, our local sports station carries Vikings broadcasts, and coaches and players alike can't say enough good about Harvin. They all talk about him and the example he sets blah blah blah. And it's unsolicited.

If they are anything other than completely in love with him in Minnesota, then they've fooled me.

No f'n way. Minnesota loves Harvin. He's the heart of that team. They aren't trading him away.

I don't understand why they would either. There have been some national rumors that he could request a trade since he is unhappy. If they made him available, I would absolutely give up the first pick in the second round for him. In a heartbeat. He is a rare talent.
